Welcome to Year One
We hope you enjoy visiting our Year One page which shows the wonderful learning that happens in our classrooms. Please follow us on Twitter @CanonYearOne.
Our curriculum project this term is: Bright Lights, Big City
In In the School Days project, your child will have the opportunity to take part in a traditional Victorian class and will learn about the differences between schooling in the Victorian era and schooling today. They will learn about objects found in a Victorian classroom and how they were used. They will research Samuel Wilderspin, an important figure in the development of schooling for young children in the Victorian era, whose ideals are reflected in schooling today. They will learn to describe the passage of time through study of past, present and future tense vocabulary.
In Maths this half term, we will be learning to:
- Place Value within 100
- Addition and Subtraction within 100
- Money
- Time
Home Learning:
PurpleMash: Children are set weekly tasks on PurpleMash in their '2Do' folder. Please help your child to log on at home as this is aligned to learning that they have covered in the classroom and will support their progress further.
Home Learning Project: We ask children to choose to complete a home learning project linked to their curriculum project being studied. Home learning projects provide a fun and creative opportunity for children to practise and apply new skills, as well as express their knowledge in a topic area.
